Not a lot; just life

Oh where to begin?! We are all finally healthy and I'm so thankful! The girls are growing so fast. 

Potty training progress: We are almost through our last box of #4 diapers and once we're done, we will be in pull-ups until completely trained. The girls don't go to the bathroom in their potty seats every day. I make it a point to encourage & ask them frequently, but at this point, I still wait for them to want to. They do like sitting on their seats & reading. They often pretend by sitting on their seats and making "going" sounds. Tonight while sitting in their highchairs, Kare said "ickypoo" & started pushing, so I rushed her to the potty & she went #2. She enjoyed the praise, treat & sticker that followed. When I got done with helping her, Kelsie said "ickypoo", so I took her and she did the exact same thing! They are getting to a point where being wet & dirty really bothers them and they've even begun tugging at a dry diaper as if it's uncomfortable. I'm also so thankful that they're able to communicate better and let me know when they need to go. I hope it continues.

Things that the girls have been doing lately:

It is amazing to watch them grow! They are learning so fast. Ian and I are fascinated by them and feel very blessed.

Ian's always hard at work but he's enjoying his job. He also got the cool opportunity to meet Chris Kyle, the most lethal sniper in American history! He was at Hastings for his book signing. Ian was thrilled! 

And I'm just busy being a wife & Mama; two of the greatest things ever and I love doing them!
